Comparative Politics: An Analysis of the Japanese Government and Economy.
This six-page graduate paper is in the form of three two-page essays on the Meiji Restoration, Japan’s postwar one-party democracy, and the implications of state-run capitalism. The author examines why the Meiji Restoration contributed to the rise of militarism in Japan and the consequences of this development; discusses the implications of one-party democracy in Japan, and analyzes how state-led capitalism helped Japan achieve great economic prosperity by the nineteen-eighties.
